Is there any central, web-accessible location for the download statistics for all of the Bioconductor packages? I know each packages web-page has a link to a page with all of the download statistics, but was wondering if there was an easy way to get access to all of the statistics for given packages.
The reason is alt-metrics. I thought it would be cool to have a little R package that takes a supplied Bioconductor package name, and compares its download statistics to the download statistics for all the other Bioconductor packages, essentially providing a percentile ranking.
